SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS Detail-oriented and independent scientist with research experience in human aging and genetic diseases, pursuing a variant scientist role in clinical genomics and genetic counseling Hands-on experience in human genetics, interpretation of genomics data, and validation of disease mechanism Efforts to comply with various regulations including HIPAA and IACUC Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as excellent communication skills to work with high-caliber
patients’ symptoms. The patients may not be responding to the current antimicrobial treatment that was prescribed because the microbes causing a skin infection developed resistance to the antimicrobial drugs. This can be due to mutations and transfer of genetic materials that the microorganisms have developed causing resistance to the antimicrobial drugs. The team goes on to discuss the hypothesis and process in which a microbial resistance may have been created. Microbiota can be defined as a collection
and how, the research uses genetic and molecular structure information available in databases and computationally analyses the data. The factors that lead to the conclusion of interaction between transcription factors includes spatial proximity and possible interaction poses. Molecular docking is used to predict the interaction poses and DockScore is a scoring system used to rank the interaction poses. Introduction: Plants are immobile and therefore need mechanisms to counteract stresses that
Science and Medicine. One of the reasons I wanted to major in Exercise Science was because of my intentions to become a Physical Therapist. The course work of the Exercise Science programs entails a strong understanding of functional human anatomy, kinesiology, and human physiology, which are all relevant coursework for Physical Therapy school. One major benefit of this major is the senior internship that all students have to find in order to graduate with a B.S. Secondly, another major that interests
fully utilize well-honed expertise in biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology techniques Hands-on and supervisory experience in molecular cloning, genome editing, protein expression, cell line generation and characterization, and cell-based assay developments Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as the ability to motivate high-caliber teams of professionals to achieve high levels of productivity CORE COMPETENCIES Molecular and Cellular Biology: Mammalian Cell Culture (Stem
gene effect is repressed. Genetic mapping is not only a tool that allows you to look at singular genes as above but also allows you to map a whole genome sequence. It is a specialised technique which is constantly being developed, resulting in some of the biggest genetic and scientific discoveries. One discovery was the mapping of a complete set of DNA from the human body known as the Human Genome
longevity. The prohibitive cost of health care for chronically ill individuals makes it important to pursue all avenues of study related to health in an aging population. Genetics is thought to comprise ~30% of the multi-faceted factors associated with longevity. It is important to summarize the current information available on the molecular basis of longevity to provide the foundation for future therapies. Two of the most highly associated genes with longevity across populations are APOE and FOXO3A. Additionally
Being human, we possess a quality that is unlikely to be found in other known organisms. Since perhaps the dawn of existence, the human psyche has strived to explain the origins of this quality and what it reveals about man’s conception. The ancient Greeks surmised that the Titan god Prometheus sculpted humans in the image of the gods from the mud of the earth. The ancient Egyptians posited that humans came into being from their sun god Ra’s tears. Now in modern times, scientists believe the key
came a careful publication of the work of two researchers in the journal Nature (Watson and Crick 738-740). The article ended with the assumption that the discovery of the structure of DNA could explain the copying mechanisms of genetic material. With the structure of DNA in hand, molecular biology became the fastest
Painter TS who reported a sexually dimorphic chromosome in humans. The influence of environment in the sex determination was also proved true in certain species (Painter TS, 1923). The most common genetic problems that result in disorder of sex development (DSD) has raised the importance for the identification of genes responsible and their molecular mechanism in order to control these factors. Along with this, the different genetic mechanisms involved in different animals made the task to be very
